Generic module to export product/category linked to a sale channel into a search engine
auto_awesome What this module does
AI-generated from the code · Odoo 18.0Lets you attach a search engine to a sale channel and automatically keeps the products and categories of that channel indexed in the search engine.
This module links sale channels to search engines. On the sale channel form you get a new "Search Engine" field where you pick the search engine backend, plus a "Bindings" button that opens the list of index bindings for that engine.
- Each search engine can be used by only one sale channel (a database rule blocks duplicates).
- When a new index is created, the module looks for records that have channels and automatically adds the ones belonging to the channel of that engine to the index.
- When a record's channels change, its index bindings are created or marked for deletion, so the search engine stays in sync with the channel.
- Only active records are indexed when the model has an active flag.
- Index bindings show the related sale channel, and the channel is passed along when the binding is processed.
It touches sale.channel, se.backend, se.binding, se.index and the abstract indexable record model. It is a technical/abstract module: it provides the plumbing, not a ready-made connector for a specific search service.
